Overview
- Authorities in both countries said Monday that at least 28 people died in Afghanistan and 17 in Pakistan after days of flooding and building collapses.
- Afghanistan’s disaster agency reported 49 injured, 130 homes destroyed, damage to 93 kilometers of roads, and more than 1,100 families affected across central and eastern provinces.
- Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s disaster authority counted 56 injured and widespread roof and wall failures since March 25, with many child victims and the worst losses in Bannu and North Waziristan.
- Rescue 1122 teams and local administrations continue search, medical, and relief work as meteorological offices forecast more thunderstorms, strong winds, and localized flash floods into Tuesday.
- The toll is climbing fast because many homes are built of mud or weak materials that fail in heavy rain, and Afghanistan’s strained aid system and damaged infrastructure slow recovery.
